I have just completed a three part video mini-series highlighting some of the techniques I used when I made my tree chipboard album.

Part 1 demonstrates how to cover the chipboard shapes and also stamping to achieve the natural pine bough edges.

Part 2 shows how to make the paper rosette and the cute Old World Santa pocket to hold tags or pictures.

Part 3 is  a detailed  step-by-step video showing how to make paper pine cones using McGill paper punches.  I edited this video as much as I felt I could without eliminating important pieces of the process.  It is a bit lengthy but I want you to see the entire process so you understand how the final pine cone look is achieved.  I hope you enjoy it and you are motivated to try them.  You even get a special gift in this video of my neighbors dog ( 4 houses away) barking!  I guess I can’t complain about the sensitivity of my camera’s microphones.  They are awesome.  My windows were shut tight because it is 15 degrees here today 🙂
